Teresa Kok

Malaysia’s pursuit of anarchy

Shape of a Pocket by Jacqueline Ann Surin | March 10, 2014 1 Comment

A kangkung leaf covering the nakedness of censorship

The Digital Circus by Bernice Low | February 10, 2014 1 Comment

IS the Multimedia Super Corridor’s Bill of Guarantees promising Internet freedom a strong enough protection for freedom of online information? Bernice Low suggests that we may have been taking it for granted all this while, and calls for clearer steps to protect such rights.

1Malaysia greetings: Spam or privacy violation?

The Digital Circus by Bernice Low | March 21, 2011 14 Comments

IT’S not every day that one gets a personal greeting from the prime minister via e-mail or SMS. But when Datuk Seri Najib Razak did just that to over five million Malaysians for Chinese New Year in February 2011, he got flak from the DAP in Parliament for imprudent use of taxpayers’ dollars. Another DAP […]

Govt cracks whip on Suara Keadilan

WHOM should the media be accountable to – the public or the government?

By Gan Pei Ling | June 30, 2010 7 Comments

PRIME Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak promised to review the ISA when he came into office in April 2009. But the government continues to defend the need for detention without trial in the interest of “national security”.
